You will need to convert it to hex using code or any of the online services or apps available - do a search for Hex converter...this is what you add as metadata when sending native currency or assets - any user that sees the hex can then copy it and use a hex converter to convert it back to the original format

Thank you very much. I have one more question or need a suggestion.
Lets say my file size is quite big therefore if I sent any data that is more than 64mb (last i checked any file must be less than 64mb) I need to sent parts of the file one at a time. while receiving the file what would be a better way to receive the data from the stream ?
You would just pull out each part of the file, presumably using gettxoutdata, and rebuild it on the receiving side.
Thanks a bunch :)
